-.SH NAME
-dialog \-
-widgets and utilities for the \*p program
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.B cc [ flag ... ] file ... \-l\*l [ library ... ]

-.br
-.B cc $(\*p\-config \-\-cflags) file ... $(\*p\-config \-\-libs) ]

-.B #include <\*l.h>
-.PP
-\fB\*L\fP
-is a program that will let you present a variety of questions or
-display messages using dialog boxes from a shell script.
-It is built from the \fB\*l\fP library,
-which consists of several widgets
-as well as utility functions that are used by the widgets
-or the main program.
-.
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-This manpage documents the features from \fI<\*l.h>\fP which
-are likely to be important to developers using the widgets directly.
-Some hints are also given for developing new widgets.
-.PP
-Here is a \fB\*l\fP version of \fIHello World\/\fP:
-.RS
-.nf
-int main(void)
-{
- int status;
- init_dialog(stdin, stdout);
- status = dialog_yesno(
- "Hello, in dialog\-format",
- "Hello World!",
- 0, 0);
- end_dialog();
- return status;

-.\" ************************************************************************
-.SH DEFINITIONS
-Exit codes (passed back to the main program for its use)
-are defined with a "\fIDLG_EXIT_\fP prefix.
-The efined constants can be mapped using environment variables
-as described in \fB\*p\fP(1),
-e.g., \fIDLG_EXIT_OK\fP corresponds to \fI$DIALOG_OK\fP.
-.PP
-Useful character constants which correspond to user input
-are named with the "\fICHR_\fP" prefix, e.g.,
-\fICHR_BACKSPACE\fP.
-.PP
-Colors and video attributes are categorized and associated with
-settings in the configuration file
-(see the discussion of \fI$DIALOGRC\fP in \fB\*p\/\fP(1)).
-The \fIDIALOG_ATR(n)\fP macro is used for defining the references
-to the combined color and attribute table \fBdlg_color_table[]\fP.
-.PP
-The \fB\*p\fP application passes its command-line parameters
-to the widget functions.
-Some of those parameters are single values,
-but some of the widgets accept data as an array of values.
-Those include checklist/radiobox, menubox and formbox.
-When the \fB\-\-item\-help\fP option is given, an extra column
-of data is expected.
-The USE_ITEM_HELP(), CHECKBOX_TAGS, MENUBOX_TAGS and FORMBOX_TAGS
-macros are used to hide this difference from the calling application.
-.PP
-Most of the other definitions found in \fI<\*l.h>\fP
-are used for convenience in building the library or main program.
-These include definitions based on the generated \fI<dlg_config.h>\fP header.
-.
-.\" ************************************************************************
-.SH DATA STRUCTURES
-All of the global data for the \fB\*l\fP library is stored in
-a few structures:
-\fIDIALOG_STATE\fP, \fIDIALOG_VARS\fP and \fIDIALOG_COLORS\fP.
-The corresponding
-\fBdialog_state\fP, \fBdialog_vars\fP and \fBdlg_color_table\fP
-global variables should be initialized to zeros,
-and then populated with the data to use.
-A few of these must be nonzero for the corresponding widgets to function.
-As as the case with function names,
-variables beginning with "\fIdialog_\fP"
-are designed for use by the calling application
-while variables beginning with "\fIdlg_\fP"
-are intended for lower levels, e.g., by the \fB\*l\fP library.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SH DIALOG_STATE
-The \fIstate\fP variables are \fB\*l\fP's working variables.
-It initializes those, uses them to manage the widgets.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .all_subwindows
-This is a linked list of all subwindows created by the library.
-The \fBdlg_del_window\fP function uses this
-to free storage for subwindows when deleting a window.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .all_windows
-This is a linked list of all windows created by the library.
-The \fBdlg_del_window\fP function uses this to locate windows which
-may be redrawn after deleting a window.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .aspect_ratio
-This corresponds to the command-line option "\fB\-\-aspect\-ratio\fP".
-The value gives the application
-some control over the box dimensions when using auto
-sizing (specifying 0 for height and width).
-It represents width / height.
-The default is 9, which means 9 characters wide to every 1 line high.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .finish_string
-When set to true, this allows calls to \fBdlg_finish_string\fP to discard the
-corresponding data which is created to speed up layout computations for the
-given string parameter.
-The \fBgauge\fP widget uses this feature.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .getc_callbacks
-This is set up in \fIui_getc.c\fP to record windows which must be polled
-for input, e.g., to handle the background tailbox widget.
-One window is designated as the foreground or control window.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .getc_redirect
-If the control window for \fIDIALOG_STATE.getc_callbacks\fP is
-closed, the list is transferred to this variable.
-Closing all windows causes the application to exit.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .had_resize
-This is set to TRUE
-in \fBdlg_will_resize\fP or \fBdlg_result_key\fP
-when \fBKEY_RESIZE\fP is read,
-to tell \fB\*p\fP to ignore subsequent \fBERR\fPs.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .no_mouse
-This corresponds to the command-line option "\fB\-\-no\-mouse\fP".
-If true, \fB\*p\fP will not initialize (and enable) the mouse in
-\fIinit_dialog\fP.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .output
-This is set in the \fB\*p\fP application to the stream on
-which the application and library functions may write text results.
-Normally that is the standard error,
-since the curses library prefers to write its data to the standard output.
-Some scripts, trading portability for convenience,
-prefer to write results to the standard output,
-e.g., by using the "\fB\-\-stdout\fP" option.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .output_count
-This is incremented by \fBdlg_does_output\fP,
-which is called by each widget that writes text to the output.
-The \fB\*p\fP application uses that to decide if it should
-also write a separator, i.e.,
-\fIDIALOG_STATE.separate_str\fP,
-between calls to each widget.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .pipe_input
-This is set in \fIinit_dialog\fP to a stream which can be used by the
-\fBgauge\fP widget, which must be the application's standard input.
-The \fB\*p\fP application calls \fIinit_dialog\fP normally with
-\fIinput\fP set to the standard input, but optionally based on the
-"\fB\-\-input\-fd\fP" option.
-Since the application cannot read from
-a pipe (standard input) and at the same time read
-the curses input from the standard input,
-it must allow for reopening the latter from either
-a specific file descriptor,
-or directly from the terminal.
-The adjusted pipe stream value is stored in this variable.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .screen_height
-The text-formatting functions use this for the number of rows used for
-formatting a string.
-.LP
-It is used by \fB\*l\fP for the command-line options
-"\fB\-\-print\-text\-size\fP" and
-"\fB\-\-print\-text\-only\fP".
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .screen_initialized
-This is set in \fIinit_dialog\fP and
-reset in \fIend_dialog\fP.
-It is used to check if curses has been initialized,
-and if the \fIendwin\fP function must be called on exit.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .screen_output
-This is set in \fIinit_dialog\fP to the output stream used
-by the curses library.
-Normally that is the standard output,
-unless that happens to not be a terminal (and if \fIinit_dialog\fP can
-successfully open the terminal directly).
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .screen_width
-The text-formatting functions use this for the number of columns used for
-formatting a string.
-.LP
-It is used by \fB\*l\fP for the command-line options
-"\fB\-\-print\-text\-size\fP" and
-"\fB\-\-print\-text\-only\fP".
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .separate_str
-This corresponds to the command-line option "\fB\-\-separate\-widget\fP".
-The given string
-specifies a string that will separate the output on \fB\*p\fP's output from
-each widget.
-This is used to simplify parsing the result of a dialog with several widgets.
-If this option is not given,
-the default separator string is a tab character.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .tab_len
-This corresponds to the command-line option "\fB\-\-tab\-len\fP \fInumber\/\fP".
-Specify the number of spaces that a tab character occupies if the
-"\fB\-\-tab\-correct\fP"
-option is given.
-The default is 8.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .text_height
-The text-formatting functions set this to the number of lines used for
-formatting a string.
-.LP
-It is used by \fB\*l\fP for the command-line options
-"\fB\-\-print\-text\-size\fP" and
-"\fB\-\-print\-text\-only\fP".
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .text_only
-\fB\*L\fP uses this in the command-line option "\fB\-\-print\-text\-only\fP".
-.LP
-The text-formatting functions
-(\fBdlg_print_text\fP,
-\fBdlg_print_line\fP, and
-\fBdlg_print_autowrap\fP)
-check this to decide whether to print the formatted text to
-\fB\*p\fP's output or to the curses-display.
-.LP
-Also,
-\fBdlg_auto_size\fP checks the flag, allowing it to be used before
-\fBinit_dialog\fP is called.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .text_width
-The text-formatting functions set this to the number of columns used for
-formatting a string.
-.LP
-It is used by \fB\*l\fP for the command-line options
-"\fB\-\-print\-text\-size\fP" and
-"\fB\-\-print\-text\-only\fP".
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .trace_output
-This corresponds to the command-line option "\fB\-\-trace\fP \fIfile\fP".
-It is the file pointer to which trace messages are written.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .use_colors
-This is set in \fIinit_dialog\fP if the curses implementation supports color.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .use_scrollbar
-This corresponds to the command-line option "\fB\-\-scrollbar\fP".
-If true,
-draw a scrollbar to make windows holding scrolled data more readable.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .use_shadow
-This corresponds to the command-line option "\fB\-\-no\-shadow\fP".
-This is set in \fIinit_dialog\fP if the curses implementation supports color.
-If true,
-suppress shadows that would be drawn to the right and bottom of each dialog box.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .visit_items
-This corresponds to the command-line option "\fB\-\-visit\-items\fP".
-Modify the tab-traversal of the list-oriented widgets
-(buildlist, checklist, radiobox, menubox, inputmenu, and treeview)
-to include the list of items as one of the states.
-This is useful as a visual aid,
-i.e., the cursor position helps some users.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.PP
-The \fB\*p\fP application resets the \fBdialog_vars\fP data before
-accepting options to invoke each widget.
-Most of the \fIDIALOG_VARS\fP members are set directly from \fB\*p\fP's
-command-line options:
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SH DIALOG_VARS
-In contrast to \fBDIALOG_STATE\fP, the members of \fBDIALOG_VARS\fP
-are set by command-line options in \fB\*p\fP.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .ascii_lines
-This corresponds to the command-line option "\fB\-\-ascii\-lines\fP.
-It causes line-drawing to be done with ASCII characters, e.g., "+" and "\-".
-See \fIDIALOG_VARS.no_lines\fP.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .backtitle
-This corresponds to the command-line option
-"\fB\-\-backtitle\fP \fIbacktitle\/\fP".
-It specifies a
-\fIbacktitle\fP
-string to be displayed on the backdrop, at the top of the screen.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .beep_after_signal
-This corresponds to the command-line option "\fB\-\-beep\-after\fP".
-If true, beep after a user has completed a widget
-by pressing one of the buttons.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .beep_signal
-This corresponds to the command-line option "\fB\-\-beep\fP".
-It is obsolete.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .begin_set
-This is true if the command-line option "\fB\-\-begin\fP \fIy x\/\fP" was used.
-It specifies the position of the upper left corner
-of a dialog box on the screen.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .begin_x
-This corresponds to the \fIx\fP value from
-the command-line option "\fB\-\-begin\fP \fIy x\/\fP" (second value).
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .begin_y
-This corresponds to the \fIy\fP value from
-the command-line option "\fB\-\-begin\fP \fIy x\/\fP" (first value).
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .cancel_label
-This corresponds to the command-line option
-"\fB\-\-cancel\-label\fP \fIstring\/\fP".
-The given \fIstring\fP overrides the label used for \*(``Cancel\*('' buttons.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .cant_kill
-This corresponds to the command-line option "\fB\-\-no\-kill\fP".
-If true, this tells
-\fB\*p\fP
-to put the
-\fBtailboxbg\fP
-box in the background,
-printing its process id to \fB\*p\fP's output.
-SIGHUP is disabled for the background process.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .colors
-This corresponds to the command-line option "\fB\-\-colors\fP".
-If true, interpret embedded "\eZ" sequences in the dialog text
-by the following character,
-which tells \fB\*p\fP to set colors or video attributes:
-.bP
-0 through 7 are the ANSI codes used in curses:
-black,
-red,
-green,
-yellow,
-blue,
-magenta,
-cyan and
-white respectively.
-.bP
-Bold is set by 'b', reset by 'B'.
-.bP
-Reverse is set by 'r', reset by 'R'.
-.bP
-Underline is set by 'u', reset by 'U'.
-.PP
-The settings are cumulative, e.g., "\eZb\eZ1" makes the following text
-bright red.
-Restore normal settings with "\eZn".
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .column_separator
-This corresponds to the command-line option "\fB\-\-column\-separator\fP".
-\fB\*L\fP splits data for radio/checkboxes and menus on the
-occurrences of the given string, and aligns the split data into columns.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .cr_wrap
-This corresponds to the command-line option "\fB\-\-cr\-wrap\fP".
-If true,
-interpret embedded newlines in the dialog text as a newline on the screen.
-Otherwise, \fB\*p\fR will only wrap lines where needed
-to fit inside the text box.
-Even though you can control line breaks with this,
-\fB\*p\fR will still wrap any lines that are too long for the width of the box.
-Without cr-wrap, the layout of your text may be formatted to look nice
-in the source code of your script without affecting the way it will
-look in the dialog.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .cursor_off_label
-This corresponds to the command-line option "\fB\-\-cursor\-off\-label\fP".
-If true, place the terminal cursor at the end of a button instead of
-on the first character of the button label.
-This is useful to reduce visual confusion when the cursor coloration
-interacts poorly with the button-label text colors.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .date_format
-This corresponds to the command-line option
-"\fB\-\-date\-format\fP \fIstring\/\fP".
-If the host provides \fBstrftime\fP, and the value is nonnull,
-the calendar widget uses this to format its output.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .default_button
-This is set by the command-line option "\fB\-\-default\-button\fP.
-It is used by \fBdlg_default_button\fP.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .default_item
-This corresponds to the command-line option
-"\fB\-\-default\-item\fP \fIstring\/\fP".
-The given string is used as
-the default item in a checklist, form or menu box.
-Normally the first item in the box is the default.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .defaultno
-This corresponds to the command-line option "\fB\-\-defaultno\fP".
-If true,
-make the default value of the
-\fByes/no\fP
-box a
-.BR No .
-Likewise, treat the default button of widgets that provide
-\*(``OK\*('' and \*(``Cancel\*(''
-as a \fICancel\fP.
-If \fB\-\-no\-cancel\fP was given that option overrides this,
-making the default button always \*(``Yes\*(''
-(internally the same as \*(``OK\*('').
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .dlg_clear_screen
-This corresponds to the command-line option "\fB\-\-clear\fP".
-This option is implemented in the main program, not the library.
-If true,
-the screen will be cleared on exit.
-This may be used alone, without other options.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .erase_on_exit
-This corresponds to the command-line option "\fB\-\-erase\-on\-exit\fP".
-If true, remove the dialog widget on program exit, erasing the entire
-screen to its native background color, and place the terminal cursor
-at the lower left corner of the screen.
-.PP
-This is useful for making the window contents invisible at the end of
-a series of dialog boxes.
-It can also be used at earlier stages of a series of invocations
-of \fB\*p\fP, if the series may be aborted before it is fully completed.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .exit_label
-This corresponds to the command-line option "\fB\-\-exit\-label string\fP".
-The given string overrides the label used for \*(``EXIT\*('' buttons.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .extra_button
-This corresponds to the command-line option "\fB\-\-extra\-button\fP".
-If true, some widgets show an extra button,
-between \*(``OK\*('' and \*(``Cancel\*('' buttons,
-or \*(``Yes\*('' and \*(``No\*('' buttons.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .extra_label
-This corresponds to the command-line option
-"\fB\-\-extra\-label\fP \fIstring\/\fP".
-The given string overrides the label used for \*(``Extra\*('' buttons.
-Note: for inputmenu widgets, this defaults to \*(``Rename\*(''.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .formitem_type
-This is set by the command-line option "\fB\-\-passwordform\fP"
-to tell the form widget that its text fields should be treated like
-password widgets.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .help_button
-This corresponds to the command-line option "\fB\-\-help\-button\fP".
-If true, some widgets show a help-button after
-\*(``OK\*('' and \*(``Cancel\*('' buttons,
-i.e., in checklist, radiolist and menu boxes,
-or the
-\*(``Yes\*('' and \*(``No\*('' buttons for the \fIyesno\fP box.
-.PP
-If \fB\-\-item\-help\fR is also given, on exit
-the return status will be the same as for the \*(``OK\*('' button,
-and the item-help text will be written to \fB\*p\fP's output
-after the token \*(``HELP\*(''.
-Otherwise, the return status will indicate that the Help button was pressed,
-and no message printed.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .help_file
-This corresponds to the command-line option "\fB\-\-hfile\fP \fIstring\/\fP".
-The given filename is passed to \fBdialog_helpfile\fP when the user
-presses F1.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .help_label
-This corresponds to the
-command-line option "\fB\-\-help\-label\fP \fIstring\/\fP".
-The given string overrides the label used for \*(``Help\*('' buttons.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .help_line
-This corresponds to the command-line option "\fB\-\-hline\fP \fIstring\/\fP".
-The given string is displayed in the bottom of dialog windows,
-like a subtitle.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .help_status
-This corresponds to the command-line option "\fB\-\-help\-status\fP".
-If true, and the the help-button is selected,
-writes the checklist or radiolist information
-after the item-help \*(``HELP\*('' information.
-This can be used to reconstruct the state of a checklist after processing
-the help request.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .help_tags
-This corresponds to the command-line option "\fB\-\-help\-tags\fP".
-If true,
-\fBdlg_add_help_formitem\fP and
-\fBdlg_add_help_listitem\fP use the item's tag value consistently
-rather than using the tag's help-text value
-when \fIDIALOG_VARS.item_help\fP is set.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .input_length
-This is nonzero if \fIDIALOG_VARS.input_result\fP is allocated,
-versus being a pointer to the user's local variables.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .input_menu
-This flag is set to denote whether the menubox widget
-implements a menu versus a inputmenu widget.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .input_result
-This may be either a user-supplied buffer,
-or a buffer dynamically allocated by the library,
-depending on \fIDIALOG_VARS.input_length\fP:
-.bP
-If \fIDIALOG_VARS.input_length\fP is zero,
-this is a pointer to user buffer (on the stack, or static).
-The buffer size is assumed to be \fBMAX_LEN\fP,
-which is defined in \fI<\*l.h>\fP.
-.bP
-When \fIDIALOG_VARS.input_length\fP is nonzero,
-this is a dynamically-allocated buffer used by the widgets to return
-printable results to the calling application.
-.LP
-Certain widgets copy a result to this buffer.
-If the pointer is NULL, or if the length is insufficient for
-the result, then the \fB\*l\fP library allocates a buffer which is large enough,
-and sets \fIDIALOG_VARS.input_length\fP.
-Callers should check for this case if they have supplied their own buffer.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .insecure
-This corresponds to the command-line option "\fB\-\-insecure\fP".
-If true, make the password widget friendlier but less secure,
-by echoing asterisks for each character.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .in_helpfile
-This variable is used to prevent \fBdialog_helpfile\fP from showing
-anything, e.g., if F1 were pressed within a help-file display.
-.\" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-.SS .iso_week
-This corresponds to the command-line option "\fB\-\-iso\-week\fP".
-It is used in the calendar widget to tell how
-to compute the starting week for the year:
-.bP
-by default, the calendar treats January 1 as the first week of the year.
-.bP

-.SH UTILITY FUNCTIONS
-Most functions that implement lower-level
-functionality for the command-line \fB\*p\fP
-program or widgets, have names beginning "\fIdlg_\fP".
-Bowing to longstanding usage, the functions that initialize the
-display and end it are named \fIinit_dialog\fP and \fIend_dialog\fP.
-.PP
-The only non-widget function whose name begins with "\fIdialog_\fP"
-is \fBdialog_version\fP, which returns the version number of the
-library as a string.
-.PP
-A few functions are prefixed "\fI_dlg_\fP",
